Training programme overview
We pride ourselves on the thoroughness of our training programme. Following the initial induction process, you are assigned to an existing senior consultant, who you will work directly with, assisting them with research, packaging cases and the like. In turn, they will impart you with their knowledge about the mortgage market and provide you with the personal training and support you need to grow.
Alongside this there will be professional development and coaching with the other trainees to enhance your broader knowledge and skills, and regular feedback will be given throughout the training process.
Most trainees become fully qualified advisors after 12 to 18 months having completed CeMap parts 1, 2 and 3, but the training does not stop there. Following graduation, we provide ongoing internal training to ensure you can handle the most complex transactions in the UK mortgage market, including higher value cases, and development and commercial finance.
